Cepea, February 16, 2022 – Cotton values remained firm in Brazil in the first fortnight of February, underpinned by price rises abroad – which raised the export parity – and low supply in the national spot market. Sellers had no urgent needs for cash flow, and farmers were focused on the good sowing performance and the development of the crops from the new season.
In general, domestic liquidity was low, which also reflected the unwillingness of purchasers to pay higher prices for cotton, claiming difficulties to pass on the valuations of raw material to by-products
